Between 10 May and 10 June 1992 the artistic action Irwin‑NSK Embassy took place in a Moscow private apartment at Leninsky Prospekt 12. The action was organized by Apt‑Art International and the Ridzhina Gallery. The Embassy was conceptualized as a live installation. Besides the documents and artefacts of NSK and their guests, the central event of the project was a one‑week program of lectures and public discussions, organized in cooperation with Irwin. The lecturers were from Slovenia, Croatia and well‑known names from the Moscow conceptual, media and philosophic scene. The aim of this event was to confront the similar social contexts of the ex‑Soviet Union and ex‑Yugoslavia. The encounter of individuals with similar aesthetic and ethical interests and social experience revealed that the topic arousing the most enthusiastic and intense debate was the art and culture of the 80’s and the specific role they played in the transformation of Eastern Europe.

The present edition documents the most important events, lectures and discussions that took place within the framework of the Embassy.
